Together, ORC and EYG will support Nordic financial institutions through a combination of independent operating model advisory and practical implementation expertise.

For many firms, the question is no longer whether the platform is in place, but whether the surrounding operating model is efficient, scalable and aligned with growing data, reporting and governance demands. Our joint approach is designed to help firms address that in a focused and proportionate way, without defaulting to broad transformation.

We will also be sharing our latest thought piece later this week, and meeting institutions during an upcoming Swedish roadshow.

Please get in touch if this would be relevant to your organisation.

This marks the beginning of a long-term partnership between our firms as we aim to jointly strengthen the financial services ecosystem in Jordan and the wider Middle East region, promoting best practice standards and supporting the asset management community.

Mohammed AlMuhtaseb, CEO of ISSF, commented:
"Integrating ODD into our investment and portfolio management framework is a crucial step toward strengthening governance, enhancing investor confidence, and supporting the long-term development and growth of venture capital in Jordan and MENA. ORC’s global expertise in ODD brings international best practices to the region, enabling fund managers to benchmark against global standards and continuously improve."

Maria Long, Partner at ORC, added:
"Partnering with ISSF marks an important step in advancing operational due diligence and strengthening institutional standards in Jordan. We look forward to working together to support the continued development of a more robust and institutionalized venture capital ecosystem in Jordan and MENA.”

Dasseti Collect will underpin ORC’s extensive intellectual capital and established processes with cutting-edge, AI-powered data collection, management and analysis capabilities. The partnership is part of ORC’s digital-first approach to providing services that are considered amongst the best in the industry.

ORC’s Head of Operational Due Diligence and Risk Management Advisory, Maria Long said,

“ORC’s systematic approach to ongoing manager monitoring is enriched by our combined 100 years of ODD experience, giving our clients a strategic edge when navigating the complex and evolving landscape of operational risk. Dasseti Collect will allow us to scale our current advisory services, and introduce new lines of business that can only be a benefit to our clients.”

Dasseti Collect has been designed specifically for the institutional investment sector, digitizing and automating manual processes, enforcing process workflows and ensuring maximum data coverage. Investment managers commonly report the ease of use and intuitive interface allowing asset allocators to obtain and maintain high quality data sets at scale.

Dasseti CEO and Founder Wissem Souissi said,

“ORC is an organisation that shares similar values to ours. We are both focused on providing the best possible service for clients, to allow them to de-risk operations and investments. Our platform Dasseti Collect will initially allow ORC to streamline due diligence, ongoing manager monitoring and in future can support ORC’s ESG and investment advisory services.”

ORC has joined a global network of Dasseti clients that span the institutional investment sector globally.
